If you just treat Joel Embiid playing basketball as if he’s doing one long bit.
It makes watching him play very enjoyable.
It’s like watching a wacky-waving-inflatable-arm-flailing-tubeman play basketball.
Truly one of a kind.
It’s special to see.
I’m not exactly sure what I’m seeing Embiid do here at the free throw line.
It’s muscle memory at this point.
Embiid is more flop than man.
Shot looks off = pretend you’re being assaulted by a ghost.
To his credit, it usually works.
As far as NBA refs are concerned, it’s a perfectly acceptable method of scoring.
It starts at the top really.
LeBron James, the greatest basketball player of our generation, is as big of an offender as any.
But Embiid has really established himself as the GOAT flopsman in the association.
It’s a delight to watch.
